Hi, a big thank you to Ann, Ian, Dave and all your helpers for a great rally - excellent in every way, even the ground played its part by making every engine bark ! Looking forward to next years

Cheers

Also of intrest there were a few engines I hadn't seen inculding this Marshall Traction Engine, NO.51007, Which returned form Tasmania in 2002.

I was wondering which Marshall that was.
It was a three speeder as well....was this original??

no the rivets for the tubeplate are just behind the smokebox, i added 8 inches to the barrel to make room for fitting a low presure cylinder at a later date.

This one?

Looking back in a previous thread this is a different Aveling (No. 8796) belonging to ShottendenAveling and not No. 8632 as noted above by Museum Driver. Apologies for that.
